ANCIENTS TEACHING VALUE OF OLIVES TO MODERN PEOPLE Celebration of California Ripe Olive Day on May 16, Brings out Interesting Facts The value of olives and pure olive oil in keeping the system right, was well known to the ancient people. The present generation is relearning the lesson which the ancients knew so well, and as a result olives, olive oil and olive products are coming into increasing use. A few interesting facts in this connection have been brought to the attention of the public in connection with California Ripe Olive Day on May 16th. One reason why the olive is such a potent factor in health-making is that the fruit loves the sun and thrives in sunny lands. It rejuvenates itself by the free use of the vital elements drawn from air and soil, which it converts in secret laboratories into oil compounded of all these, which diffuses through its cells and concentrates in the fruit. When expressed therefrom and used freely by man, within and without, it keeps the system oiled, the temper even and moves out the calcareous matter and hardens the bones and muscles in old age. This decade is learning from history and the wisdom of ancient times the great value of the olive as a food and oler of the human organism. A diet of ripe olives only, will relieve any aggravated stomach trouble. After a noted London society beauty consulted the kings physician for a remedy for her complexion, marred by the winter's round of dissipation, and was told to eat, drink and dress all foods with olive oil and to use it externally the beautifying result was so pleasing that beauty luncheons became a fad CHOICE OF FOUR CAREERS OFFERED TO MINING STUDENTS Training for any one'of four different careers may hereafter be chosen by students of the college of mining of the university of California. A fundamental reorganization of the curriculum of the college of mining has just been approved by the academic senate by which students may choose between four year courses for mining engineers, metallurgists, economic geologists or petroleum engineers. Choice need not be made until after the freshman year is completed. After all the students in the college of mining have had a year's fundamental training in mathematics, physics, chemistry, surveying, hygiene, physical education, and military drill, and in mechanical drawing especially planned for mining students, then they will begin to specialize. The students in petroleum engineering will have special work in chemistry, invertebrate geology, palaeontology, petroleum mining (including prospecting, the drilling and control of oil wells, methods of extracting oil and gas from wells, methods of separating sand, water, and gas from oil, and asphalt mining) and in the transporting, storing and marketing of petroleum, including the economics of the oil industry and the valuation of oil lands. A new course will be given in petroleum cost accounting, including cost keeping and accounting methods for the oil fields and methods for the payment of workmen, the purchase and distribution of supplies, and the making of production records and administrative reports, and a new course in the investigation of special problems in the production, transportation, and storage of petroleum, with practice in guaging and testing. DIRECT FROM FARMER TO CONSUMER Direct marketing from the farm to the city consumers, based upon David Lubin's parcel post idea is being tried out at Sacramento, and the very first day the price of the city retailers was cut. New potatoes were marketed last week at four cents per pound, while city dealers were selling them at five and six cents. Eggs, under the direct marketing plan sold for 23 cents while retailers charged their customers 25 cents a dozen. Cherries sold for ten cents a pound as against the store price of twelve and a half and fifteen cents. For the present, the parcel post is not used. The Pomona grange, which has charge of the experiment, sends an automobile around various places in the country to collect the farm products. The grange has coupon books which are sold to housewives in the city at $2.35. The housewife pays by coupon and each farmer has a number so that he is responsible for the goods delivered. While the plan is, thus far, being carried out in a small way the possibilities loom big. The experiment will be carried on for a month and the results reported to congress with the view of having that body act favorably on the Lubin bill. AWAIT WITH INTEREST WORK OF NEW PLAN Orange fruit growers will await with interest the result of the state commission plan of marketing the products of the orchard and farm.

To the state market director of California has been assigned the tremendous task of working out some system of selling, which will enable the producer to sell at a fair price everything which he can raise and when will, at the same time, enable the consumer to purchase it for less than he now pays. Considering the fact that the state appropriated, as a mere beginning, the sum of $25,000 to start operations, which if carried to a f...ish, would extend over the entire state and cover approximately $200,000,000 worth of farm products, the market director certainly has a big task before him. Colonel Weinstock of the state marketing commission says that, in his opinion, the state at the present time should not attempt to involve itself in the burdens and responsibilities inseparable from wholesaling and retailing farm products. For the present the state director will attempt to remedy the existing market evils along the lines of proper distribution; to prevent overloading some markets and giving sufficient supplies to and developing other markets. In other words the state will attempt to help the producer help himself. In the course of the hearings of the rural credits commission, numerous growers, as witnesses, have pointed out that, however fruitful the soil, however abundant the crop, it is of no avail if the product cannot be sold at a living price.

The work of forming a river protection district for Garden Grove is progressing as rapidly as could be expected for a big proposition of this kind. There was a meeting held at the school house last Friday evening and much interest was manifested in the proposed district by a large number of property owners. Attorney H. C. Head of Santa Ana was present and outlined the legal procedure to be taken in the forming of the district. The committee will at once proceed to secure the right of way for the work from property owners along the river, which of course, will be given free. Money for the work will be raised by direct assessment. RABBIT DRIVE SATURDAY The annual Garden Grove rabbit drive occurred Saturday. At 7 o'clock in the morning the crowd assembled in front of Garfield Allen's place and the hunt was on. Not less than fifty persons participated in the sport. Under the captaincy of Billy Northcross the hunters pursued Mr. Jack Rabbit. They hunted abreast, about fifty feet apart. B'r'er Rabbit had a restless day. The drive proved successful and another one will be held at an early date. GOVERNMENT LANDS SUBJECT TO ENTRY President Wilson, on recommendation of Secretary Lane and Secretary Houston, restored to the public domain last Saturday nearly 16,000 acres of the Cleveland national forest for settlement June 25th to July 23rd, mostly in Riverside, San Diego and Orange counties. Some of the land is of agricultural value. Expert piano tuning, F. W. Schmidt.

GAVE HIS FRIENDS THE DOUBLE CROSS Commenting on the retirement of the democratic state chairman in New York, the Evening Post remarks upon the failure of President Wilson to give Chairman Osborne any adequate support. "Once in the presidency," says the Post, "Mr. Wilson's interest in the rehabilitation of the party in New York waned very rapidly." This is by no means surprising to those who understand the Wilson habit of mind. Once in office, it is the president's general custom to disregard much, if not all, that has characterized his campaign declarations. The manner in which he has kicked holes in the Baltimore platform is sufficient evidence on this point. But as another election approaches Mr. Wilson is showing more interest in the party in New York. From indifference he is becoming very different. But the damage has already been done, and probably beyond repair. He cannot again appeal to the independent democrats of New York as he did in 1912; and most assuredly he cannot successfully court the favor of Tammany. When he failed to support Chairman Osborne, he made it certain that the democrats of New York will not adequately support him. ANAHEIM FIRM TO MAKE FERTILIZER The Anaheim Beef & Provision company has placed orders and expects the delivery soon of equipment with which it will begin the production of fertilizer by-products. The plant has reached beyond the first stage of sucroad, but it will be several months before the work can be done. STATE TO DESTROY BIRD PEST The fish and game commission, to which is delegated the function of protecting and preserving the wild life of the state, has declared war on the English sparrow. Throughout the United States this bird has proved to be a pest and many eastern cities have waged war against it for many years past. Here in California, as elsewhere, the English sparrow is not only filthy in its habits and destructive to crops, but in addition drives out the native insectivorous and song birds which are beneficial to man's interests. The campaign to be instituted by the commission will probably constitute the first united effort toward this end to be made by any state in the union. A leaflet giving methods of identifying English sparrows and means of destroying them will soon be issued. In addition a state-wide campaign of publicity will be undertaken to encourage a united effort to rid California of this bird pest. A week will be set aside during which everyone will be asked to cooperate in the destruction of sparrows and all of the deputies of the fish and game commission will be set to work killing sparrows and directing others in the work. WILL BUILD OF STEEL The Santa Fe railroad company is preparing to spend almost a million dollars on its line between San Diego and Los Angeles, according to report. The gerater part of this is to be put into bridges. IMPORTANCE OF CONSERVING WATER IN SANTA ANA RIVER H. Clay Kellogg Gives Advice to Brea Citizens at Chamber of Commerce Meeting H. Clay Kellogg of Santa Ana was a speaker before the Brea chamber of commerce at its regular meeting and gave that body some very interesting facts and views regarding the Santa Ana river and its control. Mr. Kellogg is an engineer of extensive experience and has on a number of times grappled with the Santa Ana river when it was in its destructive mood. He has been a resident of this section since 1869 and has had opportunity to watch this elusive stream and its shifting, restless course from the mountains to the sea. Mr. Kellogg says that as a source of water for irrigating purposes the Santa Ana river is invaluable and for this reason he urges the importance of conserving as much as possible of this supply. He explains that this water is used 11 times in its flow to the ocean. The soil conditions are such that when the water is distributed over the earth, after soaking the ground, it seeks a subsoil drainage and trickles back in time to the river bed. Mr. Kellogg believes that first establishing the river and then controlling it in a way as to conserve the greatest amount of water were the essentials to be considered. He discussed in a clear and able manner at length feasible and practical methods of proceeding with this work. He felt that the plan of Anaheim to build a ANAHEIM FIRM TO MAKE FERTILIZER The Anaheim Beef & Provision company has placed orders and expects the delivery soon of equipment with which it will begin the production of fertilizer by-products. The plant has reached beyond the first stage of success and is sufficiently advanced with its plans to enable permanent entry upon the period of entire use of its opportunities. The fertilizer plant to be installed will make use of quantities of bone and other materials from the abbatoir which have thus far been stored. It is the intention, ultimately, to add a soap plant to the by-product list. TO PAVE BREA CANYON ROAD Six miles of the Brea canyon road, extending from the Orange county line to the Pomona boulevard, will be paved just as soon as it can be done legally. Los Angeles county will pay three-fourths of the cost and the adjacent property owners the remaining one-fourth. The temporary repair work on the road will be begun at once. This was the message brought by Supervisors Talbert and Schumacher, J. C. Metzgar and Gus Stern who were in Los Angeles counferring with the Los Angeles county supervisors and petitioned that the road be improved. In this petition they were joined by several Pomona and Riverside representatives. The expenditure of several hundred dollars on temporary repair work at once was ordered by the supervisors and a resolution was passed providing for quick legal action on paving the WILL BUILD OF STEEL The Santa Fe railroad company is preparing to spend almost a million dollars on its line between San Diego and Los Angeles, according to report. The gerater part of this is to be put into bridges. For the last fifteen years the Santa Fe has experienced much damage to pile bridges in seasons of heavy rains. It is said permanent bridges of steel and concrete that will stand flood waters are to be installed at the principal river crossings. The Santa Fe also plans to add to its coast equipment. Plans for a structure to span the San Luis Rey at Oceanside are now under consideration by the engineering department, Superintendent of Bridges Parker having recently made a visit here with the object of securing the necessary data. It is stated that the company and the state highway department are considering the idea of a joint bridge at a railroad crossing to be used both by the railroad and the state highway. At present the highway takes a bend to the northeast from Hill street, turns northwest again to cross the river and then bends west again to cross the railroad to turn north. By the use of a joint bridge one curve with an overhead crossing at one side of the river would bring the highway into the straightaway stretch across the Santa Margarita ranch. A steel and concrete bridge to cost about $80,000 is said to be under consideration. A marriage license has been issued to Jacob Lewin and Ida Rudermann, both of this city.

Three children were injured mysteriously near Placentia Friday. A fire was started on the ranch of E. C. Basten to burn up a pile of trash. When the blaze got well under way there was a heavy explosion. Hot cobble stones under the fire were thrown in every direction. One of Basten's children was struck in the eye, another in the mouth, and the son of an employee in the stomach, the latter being seriously injured. The cause of the explosion cannot be accounted for. Basten's children were not badly injured. The explosion took place just as some old nests of birds were thrown into the fire.
